Question

Find an equation of the line that passes through the given points. (-4, 0) and (8, -3) Part 1 of 3 We wish to find an equation of the line containing two given points. We first find the slope of the line containing the given points, labeled in order as $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$. Here, we are given the two points $(-4, 0)$ and $(8, -3)$. Part 2 of 3 Compute the slope $m$ of the line containing these points. $m = \frac{-3 - 0}{8 - (-4)} = \frac{-3}{12} = -\frac{1}{4}$ Part 3 of 3 Then, we choose one of the two points (here, we shall use the first of the two given points) and the point- slope form for the equation of a line: y - y_1 = m(x - x_1) Using the value of the slope above, and the point-slope form for the equation of a line, we obtain our final answer:

Part 1 of 3
We wish to find an equation of the line containing two given points. We first find the slope of the line
containing the given points, labeled in order as $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$.
Here, we are given the two points $(-4, 0)$ and $(8, -3)$.
Part 2 of 3
Compute the slope $m$ of the line containing these points.
$m = \frac{-3 - 0}{8 - (-4)} = \frac{-3}{12} = -\frac{1}{4}$
Part 3 of 3
Then, we choose one of the two points (here, we shall use the first of the two given points) and the point-
slope form for the equation of a line:
y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)
Using the value of the slope above, and the point-slope form for the equation of a line, we obtain our final
answer:

Part 1 of 3
We wish to find an equation of the line containing two given points. We first find the slope of the line
containing the given points, labeled in order as (x1, y1) and (x2, y2).
Here, we are given the two points (-4, 0) and (8, -3).
Part 2 of 3
Compute the slope m of the line containing these points.
m = (-3 - 0)/(8 - (-4)) = (-3)/(12) = -(1)/(4)
Part 3 of 3
Then, we choose one of the two points (here, we shall use the first of the two given points) and the point-
slope form for the equation of a line:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Using the value of the slope above, and the point-slope form for the equation of a line, we obtain our final
answer:
